What are the best places to ski Bulgaria?

by Kristen Anderson

Well, you are in luck – because there are many different places to Ski Bulgaria. Starting with its mountains. (Well – you could try skiing on dry land but I don’t think it’s popular…)

Overall, Bulgaria is a popular place to ski because of it is a cheap holiday, and also has excellent skiing conditions.

It is suitable for beginners, medium and advanced and has some of the best powerdery snow in all of Europe (much to the delight of the skiers!).

Rodophy mountain has some of Bulgaria’s most famous Ski Resorts: Pamporovo, Chepelare, Belmeken.

This is is to Bulgaria what St. Moritz is to Switzerland. Only Rodophy is about 10 times less expensive than St. Mortiz.

I have a friend who was sick of paying exorbitant prices for her yearly ski holiday with her kids, but they loved skiing and didn’t want to give it up. A friend of hers suggested Bulgaria. So instead she went to Pamporovo in Bulgaria. She loved it and also loved the unspoilt nature of the mountains, and she was delighted to find she had change left over at the end of the holiday. She bought a cheap ski chalet in Bulgaria and goes there every year to ski now.

Visit Bulgaria Travel Guide to find the best places to ski and more reasons to ski Bulgaria. I would also have a look on there at when to go. If you want to get the best out of the ski season you will be wanting to time it well.

The ski mountains of Rila are also popular. The most famous of these being Borovetz resort. Vitosha Mountain is also a great place to ski Bulgaria. Its most famous ski resort is called “Aleko”, but it also has many others.

Don’t forget if you aren’t mad on skiing, you can always try snowboarding or tobogganing. There are plenty of other options to skiing and the instructors are always super friendly.

At the end of a long hard day on the slopes (lets face it, skiing is lots of fun but also lots of exercise) you may have just enough energy to go out.

Personally, my favourite thing about going to ski Bulgaria is the evening activities. You can go out and take advantage of some of the nightlife with the ski instructors and young people, or alternatively, you can just do nothing.

People often underestimate the relaxation power of doing nothing on a holiday.

A beautiful little chalet in the ski mountains, a delicious bottle of Bulgarian red wine and a log fire.

Sounds like heaven to me…. :)

Enjoy your trip to BG!!

Warm Regards,
